Problem
The Hyperliquid ecosystem offers a deeply liquid and highly performant trading environment for sophisticated market participants such as hedge funds, trading firms, family offices, and institutional investors. However, despite its advanced infrastructure and market depth, institutional access remains severely limited due to the absence of secure custody solutions available on Hyperliquid.
This presents a major barrier for funds and organizations that require secure, compliant, and operationally efficient digital asset management.
As a result, institutional participants face two unworkable choices:
- Avoid the Hyperliquid ecosystem entirely
- Use single-signer wallets, which fail basic institutional security and operational requirements and suffer from having a single point of failure
Without a secure, institutional-grade custody solution, large-scale capital allocation into Hyperliquid remains impractical, preventing greater institutional adoption and long-term ecosystem growth. To bridge this gap, an MPC-based custody framework is essential—providing the necessary security, compliance, and access controls required for institutions to safely participate in the growing Hyperliquid ecosystem.
